possibly, the drive is being recognized but not mounted because it has not been formated. Have you tried using the Administration Tools->Computer Management then select "disk Management" and see if the drive is there and then you have to format it. That is if you are using Win2k or WinXP or Vista.

Look in your BIOS and see if it recognizes your drive. If it does not then you probably have a connection problem or your BIOS is not up to date. You will need to check with your computer or motherboard maker for a firmware update.
